There is a diet that really has nothing to do with the Atkins diet, called the Atkins Grapefruit diet, that combines elements of it’s famous namesake and an all grapefruit diet. Don’t look now, but it may not be what people hope.

First of all it’s pretty difficult to find information on the Atkins grapefruit diet plan. One common element of cons is that clear information is generally hard to find. This possible con does it’s best to make people assume it has something to do with the official Atkins diet.

Does the Atkins grapefruit diet have anything to do with the actual Atkins diet? The answer is no, not only is there no mention of the Atkins Grapefruit Diet on the Atkins web site, but there is no fruit of any kind mentioned in the list of allowed foods in the Atkins diet Induction phase.

Here is what can be eaten in the induction phase – sorry Atkins grapefruit diet, no fruit here:

Fish of all kinds

Flying game such as turkey and chicken

Shellfish of any variety

Meat, such as beef and pork

Every type of cooked egg including poached, scrambled and even fried

Cheese

Vegetables

Herbs and Spices

A variety of fats and oils including butter

Water and other low carb drinks including diet soda

Not a piece of fruit to be found. Later phases of the Atkins diet for fat loss do include limited amounts of fruits such as cantaloupe and even lemon juice, and the pre-maintenance and maintenance phases even specifically allow small quantities of grapefruit. But there is far more grapefruit in the Atkins Grapefruit diet than Dr. Atkins would ever dream of allowing.

The Atkins Grapefruit Diet recommends a cup of grapefruit juice or a cup of grapefruit sections, with 8 and 18 carbs respectively. But the Atkins diet calls for no more than 7 grams of carbs in a day. the two diets just don’t mesh.

When they hear about the Atkins grapefruit diet people should naturally visit the Atkins web site to read more about it. When they found no mention of that diet on the site, a red light would go off and an alarm would sound.

Truth about diets review: Keep this in mind. Any diet that relies too heavily on one food or food group is going to be unhealthy. The philosophy of the Atkins Grapefruit Diet is counter to that of the Atkins diet.
